Rhubarb Strawberry Crumble with a Twist

Rhubarb Strawberry Crumble with a Twist

It’s part two of my rhubarb month-long blogging event and today is a dessert of rhubarb strawberry crumble with a twist! I’ve eaten a lot of rhubarb in my life and have had it a few different ways. A staple summer cake for me is the Alberta rhubarb cake, which my mom makes for me every year. Once I even made it myself too, but it’s much better when mom makes it! I’ve also used rhubarb in my easy Greek…

Cardamom Apricot Muffins

Mmmmore mmmuffins!? Yup I am posting yet another muffin recipe! If you read my blog regularly, you know by now that I like cooking and baking with Greek yogurt and love spices especially those from Silk Road. Seems appropriate to post a recipe on cardamom apricot muffins where I use Silk Road spices and Greek yogurt.  I have a lot of favourite spices, but cardamom is in the top ten for me.

Bacon Bourbon Chocolate Cupcakes

Bacon Bourbon Chocolate Cupcakes

It isn’t very often that I have a hankering for something sweet and even when I do, I am usually craving something savoury with it.

I don’t play around with the flours and cake trays much as I don’t find myself enjoying baking that much. Confession time: I played around with this recipe in my head, using a…

Southern Food Cooking – 70 Recipes!

Tomorrow, January 22nd, is National Southern Food Cooking day and it only seemed proper to pull together a round up of the tastiest southern food cooking there is out there! As a Canadian, living in one of the most Northern major cities of the country, my experience with southern food cooking is limited.

Milk Stout Chocolate Chip Cookies

Milk Stout Chocolate Chip Cookies

I was reading a beer magazine recently and read that milk stout goes nicely with chocolate chips cookies; kind of like the adult version of milk and cookies. It gave me an idea… what if I put the milk stout right into the cookie batter to make milk stout chocolate chip cookies?! I started looking around online for some ideas and to see how it has been done since I am by no means a baker! I can create cooking recipes…

Nuts and Bolts

Nuts and Bolts

I make nuts and bolts every year at this time to give out as gifts and to share with family and friends as a snack when they come over to my house during the holiday season. Oh, and I always have enough for my husband and I to wolf them down while watching Christmas movies. This recipe started from my dad who made them annually for us at Christmastime. They are crunchy and salty and quite honestly, I followed the…

It’s only five days until Christmas! If you are in a pinch and looking for a really simple Christmas treat, this recipe takes a little over an hour only, and most of that time is for the setting of the cranberry pistachio white chocolate bark in the fridge.  Cranberry pistachio white chocolate bark just screams christmas to me.
